Every Moodle course shell has a unique identifier, called aMoodle Course ID. This course ID is attached to the end of the URL of the main page of your course. This course's Moodle Course ID is3420, as shown here, circled in red:

Use your Moodle Course ID to identify your course to DLSupport, when submitting a support ticket, or support email. This helps DL Support find your course quickly, without having to sort through others with similar names and ensures that we are looking at the correct course shell.

If you need to provide the course ID for a course to which you are not yet enrolled, you will need to find it by hovering your mouse over the course link (on any page of Moodle), and looking at the bottom-left of your browser window. You will see a URL similar to this: moodle.vcc.ca/course/view.php?id=3420. Again, you can see the id at the end of the URL.

Here's an ADVANCED tip! Move from any course page to the equivalent page in another course. For example, this is the URL for the USER page of this course. Changing the course ID from 3420 to another course ID will take you to the USER page of that other course! That can save you a lot of clicks!
